Found on fanfiction.net, Ultimate Re-Imgainings are three stories all done in the same timelines and same universe, that is, the Marvel universe.

Ultimate Blaze: Heroes Unlimited[1] is a fusion of Marvel and Yu-Gi-Oh!, starring Joey Wheeler as the main character and with his own supporting cast. In this, Joey is a mutant and the Yu-Gi-Oh! game does not exist, but everything else(i.e, magic and such) does still exist.

Ultimate Spider-Girl: Zero To Hero[2] is the most 'normal' fusion of the Spider-Man universe getting flipped on it's head as Peter is replaced by his Rule 63 counterpart Perenna Parker.

Ultimate Superwoman: Transciendience[3] is a fusion of Superman and DC Comics with Superman being replaced by his counterpart Lita Kent.

Provides Examples Of:

Abandoned Warehouse: Joey lets Sofen take him to the warehouse where she's keeping his sister, step-mother and her friend.

All Love Is Unrequited: Andrea likes Joey, but he isn't too interested in her in any romantic sense. Natasha is strongly implied to like Clint, but just like Joey doesn't see her as anything but a friend. Max and Eddie both like Perenna, but she's too blind to see it. In two of these cases, things got very, very bad.

All Men Are Perverts: Subverted somewhat as Jessica states this is one of the reasons Joey’s her favorite students-because he doesn't look at her.

Alpha Bitch: Alexis Rhodes for Domino High, also doubles as a Rich Bitch. It also comes to no surprise that Andrea plans to kill her.

Kaiba is the gender-flipped Alpha Brat as he is continuously antagonistic towards Joey.

Alone with the Psycho: Joey 'willingly' went along with Sofen to keep his family safe and as soon as he realized she was going to kill them all, he dropped the act.

Babies Make Everything Better: Lita and Perenna play this straight while it is subverted in Joey's case because his birth did not make everything better between his father and step-mother.

Back to School: Joey has had several incidents of being away from school before going back, only to be injured again.

Badass Normal: Both Joey and Perenna argue about who is more badass, Elektra or Hawkeye after Joey tells Perenna that his 'psuedo-guardian' is Hawkeye.

Batman Gambit: Joey tried to pull one off as he let Sofen lead him away since he figured someone would notice he was missing. It never follows through as Joey is eventually forced to save himself and the hostages she had and Serenity calls the cops when they’re freed.

Because You Were Nice To My Son: The reason Clint thinks he's still alive is because of this since Loki could have killed him while he was in his holding cell.

Benched Hero: It's lampshaded at various points how unhealthy it is that Joey is in the hospital more than a normal person would be.

Beneath the Mask: Joey tries to act like a ‘dumb blonde’ to hide the fact he has his own issues, particularly with his guilt for thinking that he should be dead instead of almost everyone else he cares about being dead, not to mention his other issues, but those belong in their owntropes.

This could also be the reason Black Widow went after Emma Frost after Clint accidently called her by her first name. The use of the first name thought was merely to show he was getting over his initial hostility and it got taken the wrong way.

Blessed with Suck: Joey likes his powers, but even he knows that there are rather severe drawbacks to two of them. His ‘Know-It-All’ ability will make him sick if he uses it too long, and his technology controlling ability is tied directly to his emotions. And as of now his control of his powers is gone and he has to learn how to control them all over again.

Broken Bird: Perenna after the death of both her guardians, but instead of becoming the typical cynic, she still tried to be badass, but hid her despair behind false cheer and snarking. Gradually though she got better.

By the Hair: Joey's father grabs his hair and slams his head down on the window and dashboard while Lori grabs Lita's wig and threatened to pull it off.

Can't Stand Them, Can't Live Without Them: Serenity wonders this about Joey and why he even bothers with his friends. He explains in a later chapter that while he may keep his distance and not let them see the real him; he also acknowledges he’d be like Kaiba if he just dismissed them.

Cassandra Truth: Joey knows that telling anyone that his father is abusive would be dismissed, and when he finally does say that his father almost killed him, none of his friends believe him. Subverted in a way though that Serenity seems to know, and Clint actually tried to do something about it, although it backfired both times.

Celibate Hero: In 'Perfect Poison,' it's implied that Clint has never been with anyone since his wife was killed.

The Cheerleader: Sally Avril, and Liz Allan are explicitly stated to be cheerleaders, though of the two of them, Blair and Perenna say Liz is the nicer one.

Cinderella Circumstances: While his 'father' didn't die per say, this is inverted as when Joey goes to live with Clint, he is treated much better and anything he does is because he wants to do it.

Clear Their Name: When Clint is being held in the police station, Murdock is sent to represent him and it becomes apparent that Clint was framed as he would have eaten the poison if Perenna hadn't come over instead.

The Cobbler's Children Have No Shoes: A tragic example as while he is a superhero, Clint couldn't save his family and through 'Ultimate Blaze' he is never the one to save Joey while in costume or otherwise.

Comically Missing the Point: When Jennifer Walters tells Clint and Joey that she is Buck's lawyer and has left something for each other them in his will, instead of being surprised that the man has a lawyer, there both surprised he left a will. Even Jennifer lampshades it.

Cooldown Hug: Natasha gives one of these to Clint after he blows up at the doctor, though this may have been a ploy because it's implied that she's the one who planted the rat poison on him when she did that.

Cool Big Sis: Jessica Drew; Joey even describes her as this word for word.

Evil Uncle: Though it's a bit of a blink and you'll miss it scenario, but way back in 'First Blood prt 2' Barney revealed to Buck that he was going to kill both Clint and Joey, and if the adoption follows through, then the man really will be the boy's uncle.

Flashback Fail: Joey has Emma help him clear up a memory to find out who he's been seeing everywhere after realizing that the features were hazy and seemed altered.

Fluffy the Terrible / Deathbringer the Adorable: A weird mix of both is Cheshire, a small dog. Though Joey only called the dog that is because he growls and snaps his teeth at everyone, hence the name. The vicious part is because he actually attacks Joey as he was getting in the way of him trying to get at Serenity.

From Nobody to Nightmare: Andrea started off as a relatively unknown character before going completely off the deep end and having several murders under her belt . Not surprising the chapter is called 'Over The Edge.'

Gilded Cage: Though not a traditional type of confinement, the place Joey is stuck in does meet all his needs; it's just boredom he thought he'd die from, not to mention if he went to sleep he'd end up back in his Lotus-Eater Machine. Nor does it help matters that Joey admits if Clint could have gotten away with it, he would have put Joey in some kind of 'cage' as well.

Kick the Dog: The entire reason both Parkers had to die was to pour salt into Perenna’s wounds.

Knight Templar Parent: While not biologically related, though it is stated that Joey sees Clint as his father than the drunk he had to live with, this is arguably what everyone is worried about Clint becoming if he was allowed to adopt Joey, even though a lack of a little piece of paper hasn't stopped some of extreme tendencies from showing, like beating up said drunk and abusive parent or nearly going to kill a woman who'd caused Joey to be put into his coma. And that's not even mentioning he has every reason to worry about Joey's safety after what happened to his family…

Law of Inverse Fertility: Mrs. Wheeler wanted a child, her husband didn't and had an affair to make sure he didn't, but that backfired and he got one, leaving the woman bitter about raising a child she resented. And when she got her chance to have one of her own…

Leave No Witnesses: Sofen's solution to having to deal with the hostages after she plans on killing Joey.

Longing Look: Blair to Joey, though this is played for an intentional creepy vibe when Blair finally meets Joey and their Held Gaze only happens when he wakes up and catches her watching him sleep. Lampshaded by Blair herself:

Blair paused and thought there was something intensely creepy about how she was thinking, even for a hormonal teenager with a crush on her best friend’s step-brother.

Luke, I Am Your Father: After entering Clint's mind, Joey prods him to reveal who the person he sees through his eyes is. It turns out to be Loki.

Serenity also gets this when she learns her father is Dr. Doom.

Luminescent Blush: Perenna blushed like this when she first met Mary Jane and then when she met Superwoman.

Mad Love: Andrea towards Joey, as he notices something is up when she visits him in the hospital with flowers. Not all that disturbing, until her POV comes along and she starts to snap even more. Her crush is also painfully aware of her affections, thouhg he quite honestly doesn't want a relationship with anyone.

Not Blood Siblings: Averted as while Joey and Serenity are not related, their relationship is purely platonic.

Not Good with Rejection: Natasha went Type B Yandere on Clint when he rejected her by poisoning the meal he was going to eat with Joey. Only when it backfired she framed him for the poisoning and tried to ultimately kill him.

Not So Different: Joey discovers this horrifying (to him anyway) revelation between him and Kaiba when he goes back to school after being in the hospital.

Not-So-Safe Harbor: In 'Making A Splash,' this is where the showdown between the Masters of Disaster, Spider-Girl, and Superwoman happens.

Papa Wolf: Even before Clint became Joey’s legal father, he beat up Joey’s actual father for putting him in the hospital. The event served to cement Joey’s unwavering faith in Clint as a result.

Parents as People: Though Blair Flannigan obviously thinks her father is something worse, Tony Stark falls into this trope, what with how they actually interact to show he really is trying to be a parent; he's just not very good at it.

Pedo Hunt: The second Clint even suspected that Sofen was hurting Joey like this he was all for going to kill her, and was actually about to when he saw the condition she put him in. It’s implied that Joey never actually told Clint about the kiss though.

The Philosopher: Joey to some extent as a side effect of his Know-It-All power enable him to understand and question things, including giving him the ‘ability’ to be more philosophical.

Popularity Power: An odd subversion as Joey actually lives with the Avengers, yet the only one regularly shown is Clint, and that's because their pretty much father and son, and the other's absences can be justified as Joey plainly states he tries to avoid spending any time around the others.

Power Incontinence: Joey cannot feel anything without the tech around him (most notably the lighting fixtures) reacting to his mood. This is the main reason he worries about becoming the Stoic.

Power Limiter: Joey becomes sick if he tries to know more than he’s supposed to. And the more mental parts of his abilities won’t activate unless he’s looking in a reflective surface as the only way to use them is to, in a way, use it on himself.

Oblivious to Love: Joey seems to be this at first, but in 'Far From Home' he actually is aware of the fact his and Andrea's friendship is starting to take a different route, one he's not very comfortable with.

Offing the Offspring: Joey’s father came very close to doing this before Joey set the apartment on fire.

Offstage Villainy: In 'Shot To Pieces' it is implied that Loki killed Joey's father, but it's never confirmed until later on.

One Phone Call: Inverted as Clint points out that he was the one who got called when he asks for his one phone call.

Only in It for the Money: The reason that Perenna participates in the female wrestling tournament is because she needed to pay a hospital bill.

Open Mouth, Insert Foot: Tony has a tendency to do this when he talks with Blair and they seem to be about to connect, only for him to brush it off with a comment that leaves Blair angrier than before, ultimately resulting in her saying she hated him and then when they seem to make up, he does it again. Blair even lampshades it.

Blair: Well, that was another moment you just ruined right there...we were finally starting to talk, and you do that; you always do that.

Red-Headed Stepchild: Joey might be blond, but the situation is the same as he really is a stepchild.

Renowned Selective Mentor: To help with Joey's mental powers, which quite admittedly are dangerous because of his Power Incontinence, Emma Frost was chosen to help him. Though it's also revealed in the meeting from Emma herself that she was only selected because she wasn't busy.

Rescue Romance: It's one-sided, but Blair blushes and even helped Clint out for Joey anonymously ever since he saved her from Sofen.

Revenge Before Reason: Though he's always talked out of it, except for the first time, Clint is always quick to make threats against those who hurt or try to hurt Joey.

Revenge by Proxy: Sofen kidnapped Joey's step-mother, sister and her friend to get back at him for talking about her criminal behavior and planned on killing him for getting her arrested; making it worse by her not even knowing if it was him specifically who talked. Talk about Disproportionate Retribution.

Sink or Swim Fatherhood: An interesting case as Blair's adopted by her aunt, but her father still seems to try and be a part of her life. She's only reluctant because he spent most of her existence not knowing about her, and even then he didn't want anything to do with her.

Lita, Serenity, and Perenna are all subversions as while they have powers and or fight crime, their names are certainly not 'normal.'

Stacy's Mom: Gender Flipped when meeting Clint for the first time, Perenna blushed and told Joey that after the man had left, she didn't expect him to look so young or hot. Joey's facial reaction says Deadpan Snarker, but his verbal response said he was squicked, even more so when Perenna insisted this assumption.

Stepford Smiler: Joey is horrifyingly enough mostly a Type B as he will act nice on the outside, but on the inside he’s a complete mess. He’s mostly afraid that since he has to play The Stoic to keep his powers in check he will completely become this. The only people who really seems to see the real emotional state he’s constantly in is Serenity as that is her power.

Stepford Snarker: Clint, as Serenity reveals that the man is always angry and depressed all the time.

Stockholm Syndrome: Joey treats being forced to stay in the Avenger's Mansion as this, as he clearly makes it known that he doesn't want to be there and the only reason he stays at all is because he's sure he'd get dragged back.

Sugary Malice: In 'Over The Edge,' Andrea is unsettling sweet throughout her murder of Téa and her mother and even giggles afterwards. She didn't even need to kill the other, she just did it For the Evulz.

Take-That Kiss: Spider-Girl gives one to Windfall on the cheek, though she only did it as a distraction.

Technopath: Joey shows no inclination of understanding what machines “say”, nor can he “hear” them, but he can control and manipulate them, as shown whenever he accidentally makes the lights react to his moods. However he has shown to “hear” his omniscience whenever he asks himself a question.

That Came Out Wrong: When Blair goes to the Avenger's Mansion, she asks Tony why she's there, and he (probably deliberately) misinterpreted the question and started to answer about she was conceived instead, squicking Blair out in the process.

Theme Naming: It's revealed that Whitney only named Blair after Claire was because she thought the fact they rhymed was 'cute'.
